I was wondering if there was a reason USCHO is not fully supporting Safari? Some columns (like the polls, standings, stat charts, etc) are wrapping. Just noticed it after the newest version updated last weekend. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks:-)
It's been my experience that Safari adheres to CSS standards better than any other browser. This might be a case of not assuming something about column widths that most browsers (and Safari <1.2) assumed. Obviously the problem is lines are not wrapping as they should. Can't be more specific than that.
Perhaps Safari doesn't support "nowrap" ... Though I wonder if the XHTML-proper nowrap="nowrap" would work. Can you send a screen shot?
Or maybe it's something else. Don't know. USCHO tried to design things to be 100% CSS/XHTML compliant ... although there's the occasional legacy stuff in there simply because it was easier than spending 2 weeks trying to ram things through IE6. Or maybe something was missed.
Long story - but anyway. ... If anyone has any advice, the HTML and CSS is publicly readable.
It's just odd that everything up to the current version of Safari worked fine. Now 1.2 broke it, or whatever the case may be. I'll post more tomorrow if I can.

Has anybody done a direct browser shootout? I thought Mozilla/Firefox was the most CSS compliant browser on the market. In any case, both are light years ahead of anything coming out of Redmond.
Apparently there is a bug in Safari 1.2 ... Our people have submitted it to their developers ... their developers have acknowledged that it's a bug and that it's already been fixed for upcoming releases.
Thanks Adam :-)
For the record, the Safari update that comes with OS X 10.3.3 seems to have fixed the problem.
